A JOYFUL BIRD FOR SUNDAY

I  have  black  coffee  for  those

of  you  who  enjoy  it  that  way.


I  have  little  creamers  for  those  of  you

who  enjoy  cream.   I  collect  vintage  creamers,

so  I'll  look  the  other  way,  should  you  like

to  have  one. (wink...wink)
I  have  mint  tea,  if  you  like  tea.

You  have  to  keep  a  firm  thumb  on

mint,  if  you  grow  it  in  your  garden.

It  will  take  over.   I  almost  had  to

hire  a  combine  to  harvest  the  mint  in  a

3  x  5  area.   Let's  just  say  I  had  a

bumper  crop.  (rolling  eyes   and  a  whew,

as  I  dab sweat/perspiration  from  my

  forehead)...I 

hope  my  false  eye  lashes  stay  on.  I  CAN'T

GET  THIS  THUMB  AND  INDEX  FINGER

APART.

...and  finally  a  Capuccino  for  a  NaNa

who  has  an  angel  of  a  granddaughter

named  SweetCheeks.   


Today  I  just  have  to  tell  you  about  an

awesome  lady,  a  gorgeous  shade  of  red

lipstick,  a  blog  that  is  beyond  description,

and  a  JOYFUL  BIRD.


Karianne  loves  red  lipstick.  I  lost  track

of  where  she  lives  in  Kentucky  when  I  saw

her  cottage.   I  heard  the  angels  sing...no 

kidding...it  is  very  similar  to  the  house  of

my  dreams...I  LOVED  EVERY  DETAIL.

Now  those  of  you  who  know  me...know  I

DON'T  BLOW  SMOKE  ABOUT  ANY  ONE

BUT  MY  JESUS...and  I  have  a  few  bloggy

friends  I  think  the  world  of.


But  you  will  find  out  when  you  visit

her  blog.   She  is  too  young  looking  to

have  four  children  and  as  nice  as  she

is  talented.  I  felt  like  I  had  met  a  celebrity.

(rolling  eyes  and  blushing)
 


Click  on  the  above  url  and  it  will  take

you  directly  to  the  easy  to  follow  tutorial

on  how  to  make  the  Joyful  bird  and  the

turquoise  branches  that  she  arranges  for

a  spring  mantle.


Then  grab  your  favorite  refreshment  and

just  browse  through  her  blog.  She  has  other

tutorials  but  I  didn't  have  the  time  to

read  them.


I  think  if  we  find  someone  or  something

that  ignites  the  passion  in  us,  we 

 should  share  them/it,  knowing  no  one  will

be  as  excited  as  me/you...because  they/it

spoke  to  your/MY  spirit.


THANK  YOU!   I  enjoy  your  visits  and

comments.


THE  JOY  OF  THE  LORD  IS  YOUR

STRENGTH!

Oh- Thank you so much, Debbie. I do wish it were a real cuppa cappuccino across the table from you though. I'd bring SweetCheeks so you could enjoy her chitter-chatter, too.

I loce Karianne's blog-she is a lovely gal.

I hope you have a wonderful Sunday, Debbie. Are you watching Downton Abbey by any chance? I love it. God bless you, dear heart- xo Diana
